Linguine Carbonara


8 oz whole wheat linguine
1 12 oz pkg low fat firm silken tofu
1 cup liquid egg substitute
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/8 tsp freshly ground four peppercorn mix
2 dashes ground cayenne
1 cup precooked turkey bacon, crumbled
Cooking Spray

Prepare linguine as package directs. Meanwhile, combine tofu, egg substitute, cheese, peppercorn mix and cayenne in a blender. Puree until very smooth.

When linguine is cooked, remove from heat and drain. Lightly coat a large skillet with cooking spray and heat at medium high. When pan is hot, place linguine in skillet. Add pureed tofu mixture and bacon and stir to combine. Cook over medium high heat until egg is just solidified.
Makes four 1 1/2 cup servings
